The Assassin’s Blade: The Assassin and the Desert | Review & Reaction

Welcome back to the Booked On Fantasy Podcast! Today we are diving into the third short story of The Assassin’s Blade titled “The Assassin and the Desert”  Celaena has arrived at the Red Desert for training as punishment from Arobynn, except wait….THIS IS NIIIIIICE! Expecting to find a cruel and competitive group of assassins ruled under an iron first, Celaena is pleasantly surprised to discover the Silent Assassins are kind and compassionate. Her time in the desert leads to new friendships, stealing a very expensive horse, and a tragic betrayal. Despite this, Celaena leaves the Silent Assassins feeling hopeful that although things have changed, maybe, just maybe they might be for the better.

As usual, our episode deep dive will include chapter summaries with our “Book Report,” an in depth analysis of key events, and our favorite moments from today’s chapters. 

*Please note that this episode will include spoilers for The Assassin’s Blade, Throne of Glass and Crown of Midnight
